Max isn't a minor refresh of Tri-Factor — it's a full formula upgrade with the new plant-based PhytoFactor™, IP-6 at a clinical dose, a four-mushroom blend, and supporting vitamins. Here's why people are switching.
📘 Want the full picture? Read the Complete 2026 Guide — ingredients, mechanism, clinical research, and how Max compares to every formula in the 4Life family.
Max delivers 900 mg of 4Life Transfer Factor per serving — 300 mg more than the older Tri-Factor formula, including the new plant-based PhytoFactor™.
PhytoFactor™ — extracted from Brassica napus seeds — is 4Life's first vegan source of transfer factor. Max is the only formula in the world that contains it.
IP-6 at a clinical dose, a Super-Mushroom Blend with four functional mushrooms, plus vitamin C, vitamin D3, and zinc — all in the same daily ritual.
Bovine colostrum — the antibody-rich first milk that gave 4Life its 1998 breakthrough.
Hen egg yolk — the source of OvoFactor®, added in the 2000s to expand the immune-messenger set.
Brassica napus seeds — the newest breakthrough. The first plant-based transfer factor ever commercialized, and the reason Max is only found here.
Milk. Eggs. Seeds. Three ordinary foods. One extraordinary formula.
Tri-Factor was 4Life's flagship for 25 years. Max preserves the entire foundation and adds an entirely new layer.
